XPL has fallen from a high of 1.69 down to 0.14, a tenfold decrease. Such a decline is tough for any token. However, recently there are some signs of stability, and it’s no longer crashing downward.



But the problem is clear—Plasma’s airdrop quantity is too large. This directly causes selling pressure to hang over the market. If you receive an airdrop and immediately sell, it’s essentially self-destructive for the entire ecosystem. The original intention of the airdrop was to activate the community, but it has instead become a tool for quick profit, which is a waste.

Interestingly, the Plasma community still insists on doing airdrops. They know full well that this will put downward pressure on the price, yet they continue to distribute tokens to creators and community members. Honestly, this persistence is commendable, even if it’s extremely difficult.

Want to truly boost the price of XPL? Relying solely on community goodwill isn’t enough. Airdrops need to have practical use; recipients shouldn’t just think about cashing out. More importantly, Plasma needs to build a stronger infrastructure. When the infrastructure is solid, the token will have real use cases, and its long-term value can be realized. This isn’t something that happens overnight, but the right direction must be followed.

Wow, airdrops have become a tool for rug pulls, and Plasma is still aggressively pushing it. How brave do you have to be...

Falling from 1.69 to 0.14, this wave was truly a bloodbath. But let's not be too pessimistic; at least we held steady. The problem is that the airdrop was too aggressive—people took and sold immediately. If this continues, no one can be saved.

Falling from 1.69 to 0.14? A direct cut in half again, this pace is a bit intense. Airdrops have accumulated so much, no wonder it's been hammered down all the time. Who wouldn't run away with it once they get it? Infrastructure is the key. Without real application scenarios, even airdrops in large amounts are useless.

Airdrops are really just a vicious cycle; no matter how many tokens are distributed, it's all pointless unless someone actually uses them.

Too many airdrops are indeed unsustainable, it's like pouring water into the foundation of a building; no matter how much you build, it will still sink. Honestly, it's still useless. Who would sell off in real scenarios?

A 10x crash is indeed incredible, but you're right, at least the bleeding has stopped now. The real issue is the airdrop; the community really needs to think it through. Issuing tokens is easy, but crashing the price is hard.

Airdrop dump tricks are really annoying; people who sell immediately after getting it deserve to lose. A tenfold decline is heartbreaking, but Plasma is still sticking to its work, and I respect that. The key is that infrastructure needs to keep up; otherwise, no matter how many airdrops there are, it's all pointless. To be honest, without practical application scenarios, all community activation efforts are just nonsense. XPL managing to stay stable is already good, but the price really can't go up unless there's something new.
